How much protein can be absorbed in one sitting for a female?

does she spit or swallow? if she is a spitter she is obviously not going to obsorb as much of the protein - unless she holds the load under her tongue.
 
Hehehhhe..

I would imagine it would be based on size, rather then sex no?
 
ive read that the human body can only digest a certain amount of protien at one sitting.some studies say only 20-30 grams at a time.i know there is such a thing as protien poisoning,but i would think you would have to be consuming extremley high amounts to do that and eating nothing else in your diet...i have always eatin or drank 50-100 grams at a time and have never had a problem.just take what you can handle and make sure to drink plenty of water to help the kidneys with the high protien.
 
For setting up my competition diets I've had 2 different trainers use 35 g of protein per 1 'sitting' (metabolized at 1 time) and 50 g for guys. I'm 5'7" , around 155 lb (compete at 135-140 lb). I'm sure you could find studies all over the place for the amount absorbed but these are the numbers I've used as a rule of thumb from 2 independent sources. Note also that this is in the context of a competitor's diet w/ daily cardio & training for 4 months. I guess for someone who is smaller & not lifting hardcore, you could drop the amount.
 
sassy I think that is pretty close to right. For me this is my rule.


bodyweight X 2g ( of protein) = total g of protein per day / 6 (meals per day)

so say i'm 200lbs, that is 400g of protein (max) per day, divide by 6, is going to get you approximately 67g of protein at one meal. That might be a little on the high side but with someone with a regular workout routine I think it will be real close.
